Just curious, why those genes? If you are targeting a certain mix then I'd start with something like this, here's a Leopard Lesser Super Pastel for $400:

All you would need is a spider female and BAM you have your combo!
Not sure why everyone says they don't want to make money, like it's a bad thing.... It's OK to make a profit, just like raising any animals it's a lot of work and a lot of expense. After all the time and effort it's a downer to look at your finances to see them tank along the way.
Some people think of breeding to get the most genes in a single snake. There are other options, do you want to go for the best return on investment? Or maybe go for the brightest colors? Or target morphs that are the highest in demand so you can easily sell all the babies? It would help to define your goals first before you decide on what direction to go in, not sure what you are thinking from this post...
It's not necessarily the number of genes that sets the price (and demand) of a snake, it's one or two in demand genes along with other common morphs. For example, if you added het clown to that lesser leopard super pastel it would probably triple the price and would sell much more quickly. I assume you plan to sell the animals you are making or do you plan to hold them back to breed for a more advanced project?
